Welcome I am Dinah

Hello I'm Dinah Kirkland a fellow Wikipedian. I recommend you add something to your userpage such as basic information but nothing to personal like mine. It makes it easier to access your talk page. If you need any assistance you can post a discussion on my talk page. Dinah Kirkland (talk) 17:22, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

there you go that's better! Dinah Kirkland (talk) 17:57, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

How do you do the "Thank" thing?

When on a Users contributions page there is a blue box that says "Thank" Dinah Kirkland (talk) 18:03, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Can I

Can I use your kitten picture that you sent in the thank you on my userpage? It looks kinda lile Dinah Liddell from Alice In Wonderland and that's my thing... Dinah Kirkland (talk) 18:43, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Please use it! Did you really need my permission?--23mason (talk) 12:36, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Heh... no but I was just being nice to a fellow Wikipedian ^-^ Dinah In Wonderland 13:03, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

September 2017

Hello, I'm PlyrStar93. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to Lake Shore Public Schools because they seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thanks. -★- PlyrStar93. _{→Message me. ←} 13:01, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

I don't understand. The banner at the top said the article needed more inline_citations.--23mason (talk) 13:30, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Robert Wagner

Thank you for adding additional references to this article! However, please note that, per WP:RS/IMDb, IMDb is not considered a reliable source and should not be used in citations. Thanks! DonIago (talk) 15:07, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Sorry. It will be a lot harder without IMDb. ):

--23mason (talk) 14:36, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Unfortunately, as with Misplaced Pages itself, much of the information on IMDb can be added by anyone. Happy editing! DonIago (talk) 18:13, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

Rudolf Steiner

Thanks for your work here. The last two sources you added don't look like reliable sources, however; can we change them to any of the standard biographies (such as Lindenberg)? Clean Copy 23:08, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

I don't understand what you are asking here. The biography I was editing was on Rudolph Steiner, not "Lindenberg." If a source isn't reliable in one biography, why would it be acceptable to use it in another one. Why are you asking my permission to edit something?--23mason (talk) 16:28, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Sorry for the confusion! I was politely suggesting that the existing source be changed to cite a more reliable one, a biography of Steiner by Lindenberg, which contains the same material. Clean Copy 21:50, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Why are you saying that I am interested in "Complementary and Alternative Medicine." This message is confusing.--23mason (talk) 16:31, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Why are you saying I show an interest in "pseudoscience and fringe science" This message confuses me.--23mason (talk) 16:33, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Because you have shown interest in the article Rudolf Steiner, who was a pseudoscientist pur sang. tgeorgescu (talk) 19:47, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
